Jim Black Construction

Worst company to ever hire!

If it could be zero it would be. My house had to be rebuilt completely from a fire. Way under schedule and way over budget. They said it would take 6 months and it took 9. Almost every month they had a new reason to charge me more money. My favorite was when they didn't even know the local code for attic insulation in Adams county so had to charge me more for that. Very disappointed that a company who is supposed to rebuild houses doesn't even know local codes then charges me more because they screwed up.
Next is when we sat down together to pick out all the fixtures I told them I wanted oiled rubbed bronze fixtures in my bathroom. He even wrote it down. Months later I discover they put in chrome. The cheapest finish they could buy. When I asked them about it they said "oh shoot I even wrote that down. well oil rubbed bronze is more expensive so you have to pay more for us to change that out" Wait why? Once again they screw up and once again they want to charge me more money.
Other things they refused to fix include light switches installed on the wrong side of the wall for a room. My basement sink is double trapped which is against plumbing code. And they guy who did the tile poured grout down my floor drain. Now they did fix it but it tool them over a week to do it.
Warranty, why bother, I have a tenant in the basement that pays rent. All of her outlets and lights just stopped working. on Saturday, I call Jim Black on Sunday he responds on Monday saying he can come over Tuesday he says an electrician will be here on Thursday, at 5 pm I call him because no one has shown up. He says he will show up tomorrow. At this point my tenant has been out of power for 6 days. I call my own electrician and it is fixed by 7 pm the same day on Thursday night. now of coarse they don't want to pay for it because "it wasn't their electrician" Well having to live in the dark for over a week is unacceptable.

All in all DO NOT TRUST JIM BLACK CONSTRUCTION!
You will pay way more money then planned, It will take way longer then planned, And when an issue arises don't hold your breath because it seems to always take over a week to get the most simple thing fixed.
